Well I think the 1200s are cool. Welcome. Oh yeah, one little thing... you have to post a few pictures of your car. Sorry but it IS in the rules.

I don't really have any pics on me but I came up with some links.

I've been wanting to "take some pictures" of my wife too, it's funny you mention that.

Dated technology? Are you for real? The L series engines that power/powered most of the old Datsuns on this site are much older technology. I know the 4AG Souk had planned on putting in his car was a JDM engine with EFI w/ITB's. That's much more advanced than a carb and points... I'm just sayin

I guess I wasnt real clear on my rant :o. Im certainly not saying the 4ag is old technology as compared to the L engine. What I am saying is that in the toyota/corolla world the 4ag is dated technology. If I had the money and skills I woud replace the L in my truck with a KA or SR 20 in a heart beat; and my plans for my TE72 are a 2RZ swap with cam upgrade, and possible destroking. Like I said, I was in no way critising littlejasons swap, I think it was a great upgrade. But in the world of corollas, these engines are prized as if they are cutting edge technology, and they are not. It's more of a pet peeve of mine I guess.

Gotcha. I think any(well *almost any*) EFI engine swap into an old car is a cool upgrade.

 

Yeah, I agree; and this probably wasnt the best place for me to soapbox. My apologies to littlejason. I see you're a rolla guy too. Member of HachiRoku.net?
